International Film: Snowpiercer
April 4, 2016
Snowpiercer, a 2013 film from South Korea concludes this year's international film series. An unsuccessful attempt at climate engineering spawns a devastating ice age. The only survivors are those aboard Snowpiercer—a train with a cruel caste system. The sci-fi and action thrills build as members of the train’s lower class start a violent revolt. Curtis, the rebel leader played by Chris Evans, successfully fights his way to the front of the train for a confrontation with Wilford, Snowpiercer’s aging commander, played by Ed Harris.
